Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
A friend of a friend points out:
At two minutes and three seconds after one o’clock Wednesday morning it will be 01:02:03 04/05/06. That will never happen again. [So much for info you get by e-mail. As MuseBloggers have correctly pointed out, it will happen once a century.]

Well, I’ll be asleep, anyway. I’ll probably be asleep for 06/06/06 06:06:06, too, and next year I’ll be asleep for 02:03:04 05/06/07. But I’ll probably be awake for 04/05/06 07:08:09.
Jessie (8),
Oh, Snapple caps! I’ve got two of them right here at my desk. Let’s see what they say:
“Dragonflies have six legs but cannot walk.” Poor them. I guess I’d be stumbling around if I had six legs to think about, too.
“The first vacuum was so large, it was brought to a house by horses.” Now, that one can’t be correct. The first vacuum was about as big as the universe. It still is–at least, to the extent that a vacuum can even exist, with all those quantum-mechanical virtual particles winking into and out of existence.

No, I dont believe that one about Alabama. Check sources, please? Come, on, our rights are being stripped, but they cant yet make it illegal to have an atheist gov’t official…. theres this thing called seperation of chruch and state people. It says in the Constitution they the govt isnt allowed to favor one religion over the other.
Jeez I just relized how dumb that was. Favoring one religion? The presidents always going on about God… Plus, the Constition forbidding something doesnt exactly ensure that it wont happen. But still. Im going to go check that thing about Alabama.

You can drive a car when 16. (18 in some places) you can vote when your 18. you can rent a car when your 25.
the prefrontal cortex, the part of your brain that keeps you from doing stupid things, doesnt fully develop until your around 25. so only the car rental people have it right . so if your still doing crazy stuff when your lurning to drive, or when you vote, thats perfectly normal . its only after you turn 25 you need to start behaving responsibly.* **
* tell this to yur parents
**I have reasons to believe that the prefrontal cortex never fully develops in some musers.

question of the day
can u burn calories thinking?
my mother told me this today, but she basically knows every wives tale there is, so i dont know whether to believe this or not.

Sadly, neither or those. It sort of exploded. There were rubber bands scattered everywhere for like 50 yards. And when the camera went up to, you could still here the ones that remained it a ball popping. And it made this big crater.
When asked how he felt as he saw the ball dropping, the man who made the ball said “heartbroken.” Isnt that sad?

I got same as 88, minus the mailbox. But it depends if you press Shift or not. With Shift its:
Q##NY, and you get a plane, two scissors, a skull+crossbones, and the star. Without is:
q33ny, a funny box, two pieces of paper, a black box and a rectangle with a ^ in it.
Also, if you press \, it’s something really cool. Looks kinda like a dragon.

Nope, Doanld Duck wasn’t banned, according to Snopes. Helesenki shops discounted Donald Duck, and all these rumours started flying around.

Not exactly. If we GAPAs know a website well enough so that we don’t have to take time to check it, then we might let it pass unzapped. Very few sites qualify, though: Snopes, Wikipedia, Amazon, … that’s about it. And we might zap even them if we’re in one of our moods.

(122,#21) There are no rhymes to these words, either:
pint
wasp
depth
chimney
month
The way I remember those words is by remembering this sentence that I made up:
The pint-sized wasp peers into the depths of the orange, purple, andsilver chimneyeach month
Clever, huh?

141- ARRGH!!! BULLFIGHTING IS EVILLE!!!!!
our profesor de espanol showed us a clip of a bull getting out of the bullring and trampling the audience. i was the only one cheering on the bull. poor thing. and those people in the audience were there to watch it die. they lived. the bull was eventually killed.
i got this from the HSUS site:
*before bullfights, sandbags are dropped on the bulls’ kidneys to weaken them
*also before the fights, the bulls are kept in the darkness so that they will be stunned by the change in lighting when released. their eyes are smeared with vaseline too.
*if the bullfighter doesn’t instantly kill the bull, but stabs in a non-fatal area, the bull often suffocates in its own blood.
there’s a whole article. i’ll try posting the link…
